Good stuff man, I like that you do a proper diagnosis; rather than throwing parts at stuff. That’s the difference between a mechanic/ technician and a “parts changer” Good stuff as always rich
Nothing worth while comes easy. Taking longer and sharing the details is why you have a following. It may be a smaller following than other channels, but that's probably because not a lot of people dig into saws to get it right.
This video is going to help me alot. I've been having the same type of issue with my stihl 031av. Now I just need to buy me one of them vacuum testers.
It's one of my most used diagnostic tools I use. Good investment as they the MV8500 can be had for about $115. Just as valuable as a multimeter is to an electrician.
Neat seeing and hearing your process. Oh! I took your advice and went and picked up a 261 with mtronic yesterday. Dumb lucked my way into a promo with a bunch of freebies. Haven't got to play with it much, but I really like it already. Thanks!
Been out of production for a reason…. They suck. I am also comparing a ported 201tcm to a ported 200t More power with a (ported) 201 and much better ergonomics and you don’t have to turn the switch back to the on position. Just pull and go after initial start up.
Another one brought back from the dead. Nice work Richard. The 200t is a classic that deserves resurrection.
"It just takes too long and you can't charge for that..." Another reason I like this channel.
This was a good one Richard! Appreciate you taking the time to share it with us. The shirt really made me laugh so thank you!

Thank you!
You’re the man! That 660 I talked to you about a couple weeks back is running like a top. Thanks for the advice man!
Rich nice work 😊😊😊

The good old 200t!
Thank you. Another good video, as usual.
Great Video.
Good friend has two and we do seals once a year. Whether they need em or not
When I'm a grownup with a garage, I've got an old 200t that needs seals. At least.
Thank you Sir.
Love that Tee
Love the t-shirt 🤣🤣
Great video. I learn a lot by listening to you run the saws. Is there a way to contact you?
Please explain why the epoxy fix on the accelerator circuit works.
If anything gets by the fuel filter the carb will not function properly. These are very tiny passages.
Rich i know you 2 busy like the rest of us man but if you get time i would really love to see your input on the royal purple hp2c 2 stoke oil @ 40:1.
@richardflagg About how much would that repair cost a customer? Thanks!
more than the cost of a new saw IF one is paying by the hour for shop time.
👍👍👍 good info.

Putting chineseium on a pro saw is like dating a 10 with a drug problem.
